Yi Xiaoqiao made a decision and asked peach to disguise herself and return to the general's house. At the same time, she got on the carriage and left the city.
She was accompanied by Tian Sheng and Tian Xiang. They came from the border town. They knew the influence of the border town better, but they were also familiar faces in the border town. Yi Xiaoqiao made a simple face change for them for fear of being seen.
Because there was an emergency, they had to rush there nonstop, so Tian Sheng and Tian Xiang drove in turn, changed horses when they met the post station, and then continued on the road.
Along the way, Yi Xiaoqiao spent most of his time in the car except getting off when he was in a hurry. He drove to the border town day and night. When they arrived, the axle of the carriage was about to break. When he walked up, he made waves of squeaking sounds, as if he was going to fall apart at any time.
Because of the border war, the border city has been closed, and people check in and out.
Fortunately, their easy appearance was not revealed. The man checked their things and let them in without finding any contraband.
After entering the city, Tian Xiang's smart eyes swept around to make sure that the officers and soldiers no longer paid attention to them. Then he got into the carriage and asked in a low voice, "childe, shall we go back directly?"
Yi Xiaoqiao shook his head positively: "no, go to the inn."
There are people monitoring Yi Xiaoqiao in Yucheng, and there must be people monitoring Mu Yian in the border city. If anyone knows that she is looking for mu Yian and is not in Yucheng, something will happen in Yucheng. At that time, peaches will be in danger. Although the martial arts of peaches should not be a big problem, Yi Xiaoqiao still doesn't want her to take risks.
Let Tian Xiang mend his makeup. They stopped in front of the inn.
Keyunlai is an inn with two floors. The first floor is where to eat and the second floor is where to stay. There is a big yard behind the inn. The back door is the street where the general's house is located. It is the inn bought by Mu Yi'an.
Maybe it's because of the war in the frontier. Although it's time for dinner, the inn is empty. Only the waiter sits on the bench at the door, chasing flies in boredom. He doesn't know whether he is watching the store or sleeping.
Yi Xiaoqiao stepped inside.
The waiter raised his eyelids lazily and ignored them.
Yi Xiaoqiao went directly to the counter. Behind the counter lay an old man with gray hair. He was sleeping. Yi Xiaoqiao had a black line. It seems that the altar can't come back. He must lose his life.
She knocked on the counter: "shopkeeper, stay."
The shopkeeper woke up vaguely, squinted at Yi Xiaoqiao, and jumped up: "check in?"
"Yes, stay!" Yi Xiaoqiao nodded positively: "is there a room available?"
"Yes, xiaodongzi doesn't hurry to take the guests upstairs!" The shopkeeper was also a little confused and asked, "Sir, how many rooms do you want?"
"Two... Three."
Although Yi Xiaoqiao disguises herself as a man, she can't really treat herself as a man. Naturally, she can't live in the same room with Tian Sheng. It's obviously inappropriate for her to live in the same room with Tian Xiang in men's clothes. It's better to have three rooms after thinking about it.
She lives in the middle. Tian Xiang and Tian Sheng live on both sides for protection.
Yi Xiaoqiao ordered a table of dishes and ate it. It was definitely the best meal she had eaten since she started. Yi Xiaoqiao ate two bowls of rice and didn't feel full. If she didn't want to climb over the wall of the general's house at night, she might have to eat the third bowl.
The back door of the inn is the street where the general's house is located. You can see the gate of the general's house from the top of the inn. Yi Xiaoqiao asks Tian Sheng to watch and tell her when Mu Yi'an comes back.
Tian Sheng objected: "childe, we have arrived at the border town. Just send a letter to our brother. The general will come to see you. There's no need to bother so much."
Yi Xiaoqiao shook his head and looked unfathomable: "can't tell him."
Tian Xiang's eyes brightened. She had heard the peach gossip for a long time. The marriage between Yi Xiaoqiao and Mu Yian was determined. Seeing that Yi Xiaoqiao was so determined, she smiled and said, "madam, do you want to surprise the general?"
What's the surprise? She's afraid that the person under surveillance will find something wrong and scare the snake at that time.
Yi Xiaoqiao shook his head, greeted them and made arrangements for the evening.
When night falls, the border town tonight is very quiet. Every door is closed. The lights are turned off early. The tired birds don't make a sound when they return home, and even the insects can't be heard. The border town in the night doesn't even have a small sound, just like a silent dead city.
In the middle of the night, Mu Yi'an took several people back to his house quietly. Looking across the air, several dark shadows carefully followed him. When he saw him enter the general's house, he hid his body in the dark.
In the night, a dark figure turned over the wall of the general's house like a gust of wind and went straight to the brightly lit study.
"Who!"
Someone shouted angrily. The guards of the general's house were mobilized and the sound of gongs and drums sounded.
"There are assassins, there are assassins!"
When Dangdang's voice was like a life-threatening note in the dark, several people who had just hidden in the dark scolded, jumped out one after another and ran away in the empty street.
Two shadows lie on the roof, and Yi Xiaoqiao nervously pinches Tian Xiang's hand.
Tian Xiang said in a low voice, "madam, you are so predictable. How do you know that someone must follow the general?"
"Of course, let's go. Tian Sheng can't delay them for long."
Tian Xiang carried Yi Xiaoqiao's lightness skill and went straight over the wall of the general's house.
Landing, Yi Xiaoqiao patted her: "go to help Tian Sheng. Be careful. Don't have an accident. Remember, we must disturb the general's house. The more chaos, the better."
"Don't worry!" Tian Xiang didn't worry about Yi Xiaoqiao. At least she was the general's wife. No one in the general's house dared to hold her except Mu Yian, so he went to help Tian Sheng.
Yi Xiaoqiao followed his memory and went straight to the study. The lights in the study were bright and someone could be heard vaguely. It seemed that Mu Yian was discussing something with several deputy generals. Yi Xiaoqiao thought about it and left the study to Mu Yian's bedroom.
This is the first time Yi Xiaoqiao entered Mu Yi'an's bedroom. He had only seen it from a distance at the entrance of the garden before. He had never come in. As soon as he came in, Yi Xiaoqiao smelled a faint aroma. It was refreshing, like a refreshing incense, which was the smell of Mu Yi'an.
Does this person use refreshing incense to keep himself tense even if he wants to rest at night?
Think about it carefully. Mu Yi'an actually had a miserable life. Just now she saw at least three or four people in black following him. These people must not be the same force, which shows that at least three or four forces are monitoring Mu Yi'an, which is definitely not a good thing.
Yi Xiaoqiao thought, sighed deeply, and walked carefully into the inner room. The first goal was a bed. The gauze curtain on the bed was lifted and the quilt was neatly folded at one end. She looked around for a week and found no mirror. She only found a square table with pen and ink and other items. She thought it was what he used to write.
Yi Xiaoqiao didn't touch his things and sat by the bed waiting for him.
His bed was very hard. Yi Xiaoqiao looked through it. The quilt was very thin. It was more a double-layer sheet than a quilt. There were pimples in the sheet, and cotton pimples in some places. It was obvious that it had been used for some years.
Yi Xiaoqiao stroked it gently and thought that the bedding in her room was soft like velvet. She didn't feel flustered when sleeping. She was more comfortable, so that she formed the habit of staying in bed (bedding: blame me?) It's too hard to compete with her.
Did no one make bedding for him? Otherwise, how can you use bedding like this?
Yes, he is busy fighting all year round. There is not even a woman in the house. Who will do it for him.
Yi Xiaoqiao stood up, measured the length of his bed with his hands, bent over and measured the width a little bit from the inside to the outside.
Slender fingers moved gently on the mattress and suddenly heard a crisp sound of "miso".
Yi Xiaoqiao looked back in panic and saw a long sword flashing cold light straight at his face.
